How to Start Again When it Feels Impossible, with Samantha Browning Shea

Samantha Browning Shea is an agent who knows about selling books, and we talk about how it felt when her first book didn’t sell on submission, and how she started again. Also: on the struggle of the middle, on touring, and on how to keep readers reading (hint: it’s about those open loops). Samantha Browning Shea is an author and the vice president of Georges Borchardt, Inc. literary agency. A graduate of Colgate University, Samantha lives in Connecticut with her husband and their two daughters. Marrow is her debut novel.🏠 Ink Village!
